I've been using mutt with mbox, fairly happy.

I understand the argument for maildir (all eggs not in one basket), are
there any cons?

Also, if I want to migrate to a maildir setup
-advice on doing it safely? 
-I gather that most muttrc commands that reference mboxes with work fine
if I replace the mbox files with maildirs with the same names. Any
gotchas?

Thanks,
